Additional notes (by the taper): I was fairly distant at this one. My most distant, therefore worst recording of the tour... Still not too bad.

Comments

Third source that documents the show in Las Vegas, this time taped by 'Chrisedge'. Sound quality is very nice overall as music and vocals come through pretty clear, but it offers some clipping here and there. Moreover, as mentioned above by the taper, the output in this source is quite distant, the most distant out of the three recordings of this concert in circulation, and it makes the tape to sound somewhat quiet or thin. Crowd noise is minimal.

There was a huge list of VIPs, that included Coldplay's frontman Chris Martin, hence the snippet of Fix You at the end of Beautiful Day. A very nice rendition of Elvis Presley's Viva Las Vegas followed the snippet of Stand by Me.
